Balanced viral replication ensures the sufficient availability of antigens and production of cytokines, and both of which are needed for virus-specific immune activation and viral elimination. Host factors that regulate coordinated viral replication are not fully understood. In the study reported here, we identified Map3k14 as an important regulator of enforced viral replication in the spleen while performing genome-wide association studies of various inbred mouse lines in a model of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection. When alymphoplasia mice (aly/aly, Map3k14aly/aly, or Nikaly/aly), which carry a mutation in Map3k14, were infected with LCMV or vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), they display early reductions in early viral replication in the spleen, reduced innate and adaptive immune activation, and lack of viral control. Histologically, scant B cells and the lack of CD169+ macrophages correlated with reduced immune activation in Map3k14aly/aly mice. The transfer of wildtype B cells into Map3k14aly/aly mice repopulated CD169+ macrophages, restored enforced viral replication, and resulted in enhanced immune activation and faster viral control. Keywords: viral infection; lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus; vesicular stomatitis virus; genome-wide association study; Alymphoplasia mice; marginal zone 1. Introduction The spleen is a highly organized lymphoid organ that harbors a discrete population of immune cells with versatile functions [1]. Microanatomically, the spleen is composed of two distinct compartments, the red pulp and the white pulp, which are separated by a specialized interface, called the marginal zone (MZ) in rodents and the perifollicular zone in humans [2]. The red pulp zone plays a crucial role in filtering the blood, recycling iron and producing antibodies from plasmablasts and plasma cells. The white pulp zone contains B- and T-cell compartments as sheaths. Between these compartments, the MZ mainly contains B cells and macrophages [3]. Marrginal zone B cells (MZ B) cells are described as innate-like lymphocytes, because they can generate an antibody response against commensal and foreign pathogens much more rapidly than Pathogens 2020, 9, 96; doi:10.3390/pathogens9020096 www.mdpi.com/journal/pathogens Pathogens 2020, 9, 96 2 of 16 follicular B cells. MZ B cells can mount T cell dependent and independent antigens, and they express non-mutated immunoglobulin-variable (IgV) genes, some of which encode B-cell receptors (BCRs). MZ B cells are professional antigen (Ag)-presenting cells (APCs) that can present Ag to activate naïve CD4+ T cells after reactivity [4–7]. Being strategically located in the marginal interface, the marginal zone macrophages (MZMs) and marginal metallophilic macrophages (MMMs) are key components during type I interferon (IFN-I)–mediated containment of the virus after phagocytosis, which results in viral clearance. Nevertheless, these cells can prime the adaptive immune response by presenting the antigens directly to B cells [8] or by capturing the antigen via resident dendritic cells (DCs) from the conduits that connect the MZ and the white pulp, culminating in presenting these antigens to T cells [9,10]. These macrophages play a prominent role in protection against fulminant infection with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) or lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) [11]. For instance, the ablation of MZMs by clodronate leads to the dissemination of virus to the peripheral organs and to T-cell exhaustion during LCMV infection [12]. Similarly, mice that are devoid of MZMs are highly prone to VSV infection [13]. Moreover, studies using MZM-depleted mice showed that MZMs contribute in controlling Listeria monocytogenes infections [11]. Maintaining intact splenic architecture is important in guaranteeing immune surveillance. The orchestration between B cells and MZMs is crucial for the architecture and quality of the MZ [14]. For example, the absence of B cells results in the ablation of MMMs and MZMs [15]. Another study showed that the integrity and function of organized MZ critically depend on the existence of B cells, as documented in studies using CD70TG mice, in which the B cells were steadily depleted because the high expression of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family member CD70, and subsequent loss of splenic marginal zone [16]. On the other hand, the disruption of Src homology 2–containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP) in myeloid cells demonstrates that MZMs are necessary for the retention and trafficking of MZ Bs [14,17]. A mouse strain called alymphoplasia (aly/aly) mice, mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 (Map3k14aly/aly) mice, or NF-κB–inducing kinase (NIKaly/aly) mice is defined by the complete absence of lymph nodes (LN) and Peyer’s patches (PP). These mice have no MZ and they exhibit disorganized splenic and thymic architecture and, thus, immune intolerance against viral infections. The atrophic lymphoid structure in these murine models is caused by an autosomal recessive point mutation in the aly locus situated on chromosome 11, which encodes Nik. Nik is a key mediator of Nf-κB activation by the TNF receptor family and it is essential in the development and maintenance of B cells. Nik interacts with the TNF receptor–associated factor (TRAF) family of proteins and its downstream molecules, such as lymphotoxin-β receptor (Ltβr) and CD40 [18–22]. We implemented a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of inbred mouse strains to determine the mechanisms that regulate early viral replication in the spleen. We found that Map3k14 is a key mediator of immune surveillance during viral infection, as it promotes the immune activation, which is dependent on viral replication in the spleen. Map3k14aly/aly mice showed limited early replication of LCMV and VSV and had a blunted innate and adaptive immune activation. We attributed the underlying mechanism to the deficiency of marginal zone B cells, which are prominent regulators of the integrity of lymphoid organ architecture, with the help of transfer experiments and generation of bone marrow chimeric mice. 2. Results 2.1. Genome-Wide Association Study Shows That Map3k14 Is a Regulator of Viral Replication in the Spleen We executed genome-wide association study (GWAS) using different inbred mouse lines which have genetic variations due to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) present in introns and exons of various genes to gain insight about the novel host factors that determine immune activation during virus infection [23]. We infected these inbred mouse lines with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus Pathogens 2020, 9, 96 3 of 16 (LCMV) and determined the early viral titers in the spleen after three days. We observed remarkable differences in the virus replication between the tested mouse lines (Figure1A). Next, we correlated the biological response (viral titers) and genotype (SNPs) for these mouse lines while using efficient mixed-model association (EMMA), as described previously [24,25]. EMMA analysis revealed the SNP mm37-11-103083091 at position 11:103,089.4k in mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 (Map3k14) gene Pathogens 2020, 9, x FOR PEER REVIEW 4 of 17 as one of the top rank candidates among all of the SNPs (Figure1B,C).

Abstract Background The characterization of diseases in terms of perturbated gene modules was recently introduced for the analysis of gene expression data. Some approaches were proposed in literature, but many times they are inductive approaches. This means that starting directly from data, they try to infer key gene networks potentially associated to the biological phenomenon studied. However they ignore the biological information already available to characterize the gene modules. Here we propose the detection of perturbed gene modules using the combination of data driven and hypothesis-driven approaches relying on biological metabolic pathways and significant shortest paths tested by structural equation modeling.

At present, there is still no clear picture of what makes this ciliate a fish pathogen and what makes fish resistant to this ciliate. In the present study, we used transcriptomic techniques to evaluate the interactions between P. dicentrarchi and turbot leucocytes during the early stages of infection. The findings enabled us to identify some parasite genes/proteins that may be involved in virulence and host resistance, some of which may be good candidates for inclusion in fish vaccines.

  • Modulation of NF-Κb Signalling by Microbial Pathogens
    REVIEWS Modulation of NF‑κB signalling by microbial pathogens Masmudur M. Rahman and Grant McFadden Abstract | The nuclear factor-κB (NF‑κB) family of transcription factors plays a central part in the host response to infection by microbial pathogens, by orchestrating the innate and acquired host immune responses. The NF‑κB proteins are activated by diverse signalling pathways that originate from many different cellular receptors and sensors. Many successful pathogens have acquired sophisticated mechanisms to regulate the NF‑κB signalling pathways by deploying subversive proteins or hijacking the host signalling molecules. Here, we describe the mechanisms by which viruses and bacteria micromanage the host NF‑κB signalling circuitry to favour the continued survival of the pathogen. The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) family of transcription Signalling targets upstream of NF‑κB factors regulates the expression of hundreds of genes that NF-κB proteins are tightly regulated in both the cyto- are associated with diverse cellular processes, such as pro- plasm and the nucleus6.

    Li et al. Journal of Hematology & Oncology (2018) 11:59 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13045-018-0602-8 REVIEW Open Access Targeting the Hsp90-Cdc37-client protein interaction to disrupt Hsp90 chaperone machinery Ting Li1, Hu-Lin Jiang2, Yun-Guang Tong3,4 and Jin-Jian Lu1* Abstract Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a critical molecular chaperone protein that regulates the folding, maturation, and stability of a wide variety of proteins. In recent years, the development of Hsp90-directed inhibitors has grown rapidly, and many of these inhibitors have entered clinical trials. In parallel, the functional dissection of the Hsp90 chaperone machinery has highlighted the activity disruption of Hsp90 co-chaperone as a potential target. With the roles of Hsp90 co-chaperones being elucidated, cell division cycle 37 (Cdc37), a ubiquitous co-chaperone of Hsp90 that directs the selective client proteins into the Hsp90 chaperone cycle, shows great promise. Moreover, the Hsp90-Cdc37-client interaction contributes to the regulation of cellular response and cellular growth and is more essential to tumor tissues than normal tissues. Herein, we discuss the current understanding of the clients of Hsp90-Cdc37, the interaction of Hsp90-Cdc37-client protein, and the therapeutic possibilities of targeting Hsp90-Cdc37-client protein interaction as a strategy to inhibit Hsp90 chaperone machinery to present new insights on alternative ways of inhibiting Hsp90 chaperone machinery.

A meta-learning approach for genomic survival analysis Yeping Lina Qiu1;2, Hong Zheng2, Arnout Devos3, Olivier Gevaert2;4;∗ 1Department of Electrical Engineering, Stanford University 2Stanford Center for Biomedical Informatics Research, Department of Medicine, Stanford University 3School of Computer and Communication Sciences, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) 4Department of Biomedical Data Science, Stanford University ∗To whom correspondence should be addressed: [email protected] Abstract RNA sequencing has emerged as a promising approach in cancer prognosis as sequencing data becomes more easily and affordably accessible. However, it remains challenging to build good predictive models especially when the sample size is limited and the number of features is high, which is a common situation in biomedical settings. To address these limitations, we propose a meta-learning framework based on neural networks for survival analysis and evaluate it in a genomic cancer research setting. We demonstrate that, compared to regular transfer- learning, meta-learning is a significantly more effective paradigm to leverage high-dimensional data that is relevant but not directly related to the problem of interest. Specifically, meta-learning explicitly constructs a model, from abundant data of relevant tasks, to learn a new task with few samples effectively. For the application of predicting cancer survival outcome, we also show that the meta- learning framework with a few samples is able to achieve competitive performance with learning from scratch with a significantly larger number of samples.

ABSTRACT Receptor tyrosine kinases are a diverse family of transmembrane proteins that can activate multiple pathways upon ligation of the receptor, one of which is the series of mitogen- activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling cascades. The MAPK pathways play critical roles in a wide variety of cancer types, from haematological malignancies, to solid tumours. Aberrations include altered expression levels and activation states of pathway components, which can sometimes be attributable to mutations in individual members.
